    What is an automatic time tracker?

    An automatic time tracker is software that records where your time goes without you starting timers, filling timesheets, or tagging anything. You work; it watches; at the end of the day there is a record. The category exists because the man

    Time Tracking Without Surveillance

    Search for “time tracking software” and most of what ranks is employee monitoring: admin dashboards, activity scores, screenshots-for-your-manager, idle detection. Useful to somebody, maybe - but if you wanted to understand your own time, y

    See Where Your Time Goes on a Mac

    There are three real ways to see where your time goes on a Mac, and none of them involve starting a timer. They differ in how much truth they give you. Option 1: Screen Time (built in, free, app-level) Apple’s Screen Time (System Settings →

# Design Brief: Gradient Glow (with Editorial)

Luminous radial glows and translucent glass panels, widely used across modern AI products.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #06112d;
  --surface: #dde1e8;
  --foreground: #ffffff;
  --muted-foreground: #85858c;
  --accent: #175585;
  --radius: 8px;
  --font-heading: "Instrument Serif", serif;
  --font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #06112D (~61%) · Surface #DDE1E8 (~27%) · Text #FFFFFF (~4%) · Muted Text #85858C (~2%) · Accent #175585 (~6%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Headline Over Large Product Shot
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Dark · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Medium Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Product UI Screenshot / Component
- Conversion CTA: Download App / Install Extension
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Large Hero Product Shot
- Spatial layout notes: Headline Over Large Product Shot hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Gradient Glow (Dark canvas, balanced density) featuring headline over large product shot layout and product ui screenshot / component visuals.

## Avoid

- Muddy low-contrast text over gradients
- Overuse of full-screen rainbow backgrounds
- Cluttered dense tables in the hero

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
